Behavior of Copy Username / Copy Password in Password List object

Dear Devolution Team,
let me propose change of behavior of buttons Copy Username / Copy Password (top Home ribbon) when working with Password List (alias PL bellow).

Current behavior:

  1. open PL object
  2. select login (click on specifick row)
  3. click on button Copy Username / Copy Password in Home (top) ribbon
  4. new window with that PL opens
  5. user has to choose the login (row of PL) again


My proposed behavior:

  1. open PL object
  2. select login (click on specific row)
  3. click on button Copy Username / Copy Password in Home (top) ribbon
  4. the username / password of the specific selected row is coppied and no new window opens


When the RDM is used on big screen, it is not big deal, but when used on the small screen, the column with buttons for copying username / password is "hidden", and you had to scroll to the right and back all the time, pretty frustrating, believe me... My proposed behavior could be a big time saver (we user PL a lot) it is much intuitive from UX view.

Regards

Hello,

Do you think adding a context menu to the row where you could perform the copy actions would work for you?


I'm asking because the ribbon buttons are tied to the same actions as the context menu in the tree view and the buttons in the dashboard. It's difficult for RDM to know what the "intended context" is for those buttons as they are available no matter where your focus is. Having a context menu in the password list's list would be the simplest for us to implement, as well as the clearest behavior for users in my opinion.

Hello,
context menu (right mouse click on the specific row) with the options like copy username / copy password / ... would be also fine - I would get to the desired action by just two clicks without need to horizontaly scroll. That sounds pretty fine and probably much more easy for you to implement.

Hello,

may I reopen this thread with one more suggestion to make copying password even easier?

Double click in column host copies host
Double click in column username copies username
Double click in column password copies password

Would this be possible?

Hello,

We've added the possibility to quickly copy by double clicking inside the columns. This should be available for the upcoming 2024.2.4 version.
